Galatasaray legend Tanju Çolak has showered Nigerian striker Victor Osimhen with praise, emphasizing that without his outstanding contributions, the club would be struggling to stay in the top five of the Süper Lig. According to Çolak, Osimhen's impact has been crucial in keeping Galatasaray at the top of the league table.
Osimhen, who joined the Turkish side on loan last summer, has proven to be a transformative player for the club. His performances have helped propel Galatasaray to the Süper Lig summit, where they currently sit with 65 points, four points ahead of their fierce rivals, Fenerbahçe.
The 26-year-old has been directly involved in an impressive 27 goals in 28 matches across all competitions. He has scored 22 goals and provided five assists, consistently delivering vital performances throughout the season.
Çolak praised Osimhen's tireless work ethic and fierce determination, highlighting the striker's ability to get involved in every aspect of the game. "Osimhen plays to the death!" Çolak exclaimed during an interview with Ekol TV. He further emphasized that Osimhen's passion, ambition, and relentless drive set him apart from others.
The Galatasaray legend pointed out that Osimhen's competitive spirit and refusal to accept defeat have been key to the club's success. "None of them wants to win as much as Osimhen," he said. "If it weren’t for Osimhen, Galatasaray could even be in fifth place."
With the Süper Lig season nearing its conclusion, Osimhen remains focused on helping Galatasaray secure the title before he is expected to leave the club in the summer. His commitment to the team is evident as he continues to play a pivotal role in their title chase.
Osimhen's future has become a hot topic as top European clubs express interest in securing his services. As the transfer window approaches, speculation about his next move continues to dominate discussions in the football world.
